A Call for Virtual Storytellers

Last year we hosted a fabulous event for local community storytellers to share their stories. Just because we are virtual, doesn't mean we can't host this again!

If you are a storyteller interested in participating in a virtual event, email Rachel Bishop at rbishop@wenatcheeriverinstitute.org.
